A cold knee usually heals itself as follows. Patients with a cold knee will experience knee pain with knee swelling and limited knee motion. As long as the patient keeps warm and avoids getting cold again, the blood circulation in the knee joint will be fully restored and it will not take long for the clinical symptoms to heal completely and the patient’s knee function to be restored. Therefore, patients with cold knees can heal themselves without special treatment. If the patient is unable to tolerate the pain and limited activities, heat, local ultrashort wave therapy, acupuncture and massage can be used to accelerate the relief of symptoms, which will cause the patient to feel a significant reduction in clinical symptoms such as pain and a significantly faster recovery. Therefore, if manual treatment is used after a cold knee, it will mostly lead to faster recovery of symptoms.
